I have been getting requests for retirement cards so thought I would make up a few.

I think this one could be for a man.  I guess all of us baby boomers are coming of age.

Darice - Dotted emboss folder

PTI's Feather Finery stamp set in Tropical Teal

Kind of plain, not really loving it.

Make It Monday #169 by Melissa Phillips

 

My second card for MIM such a fun technique stamping over chalked emobossing

Cuttlebug Embossing Folder - using blue and green chalks.

PTI's Beautiful Butterflies in Hibiscus Burst & Harvest Gold, and Fresh Ink Sky Blue

PTI's Aqua Mist Pattern Paper and Ribbon- under vellum

Ranger's Liquid Platinum embossing powder

I tried using Sweet Life of this card and another one and it would just ink up the outside and I couldn't get any ink in the middle.  Not sure why.  Then I tried the butterflies and that seem to work good.
